Chapter 1

Master paused for a long moment before speaking with a pained expression. “I am the very last Master to take a female disciple. All the others have already fallen.”

In my heart, I wailed. Had Master ever considered that I was also the last female disciple who hadn’t managed to hook her own Master yet?

Nowadays, the other female disciples were starting to ostracize me as an outlier.

Back when we first set the goal of conquering our Masters, they all flattered me. They assumed that since our Master founded the Hehuan Sect, I would be the first one to succeed.

But after three hundred years, I haven’t even managed to touch Master’s hand.

Other people’s Masters are the ascetic, world-weary types. To put it bluntly, they haven’t seen much of the world. Once those girls get their hands on them, they crumble instantly.

But my Master? He founded the Hehuan Sect. He’s seen it all. He is as beautiful as can be, but he’s incredibly hard to play.

The first time, I pretended to fall into his bath. He just flicked his finger, using a spell to push my head underwater. He nearly drowned me.

The second time, I brought a secret manual and knocked on his door in the middle of the night, asking for his guidance. The positions in the manual were quite… peculiar. Master called Eldest Senior Brother and Third Junior Brother over to demonstrate them for me. Afterward, the two of them chased me around and beat me for half a month.

The third time, I stole the Hehuan Sect’s most potent aphrodisiac. I watched him drink my tea with my own eyes, but Master just smacked his lips, completely unchanged.

Thinking I had grabbed the wrong bottle, I took a sip myself. My entire body immediately felt like it was on fire.

Master tapped my forehead, and the effects of the drug vanished instantly.

I told the other female disciples that it wasn’t a lack of ability on my part; it was simply that my opponent was too powerful. I suspected that Master had spent too much time playing the field in his younger years and had long since entered a period of burnout, losing all interest in the affairs of men and women.

This was a major setback for me.

Back then, no female disciple wanted to join the Hehuan Sect. Eldest Senior Brother had pointed toward our Master’s ethereal, jade-like visage in the distance, promising that if I joined, he would lead me to experience the ultimate joys of an immortal’s life.

Eldest Senior Brother was a good judge of character; he saw right through me with a single glance.

Unfortunately, I have spent years stubbornly focused on Master, to the point that I still haven’t had a taste of the forbidden fruit.

Today, I gave Master repeated assurances that I would no longer try to make a move on him.

Master peered at me, seemingly unable to believe that I was truly willing to give up on a delicate flower like him.

After a dejected farewell to Master, I gathered with the other female disciples and announced my failure.

Everyone offered their consolations.

Then, a sudden voice rose from the crowd. “Why not try a Master from another sect?”

There are plenty of young and handsome Masters in the Cultivation World these days, but those who haven’t been snatched up yet are as rare as phoenix feathers.

Aside from my Master, the only ones left were at the Dustless Palace of the Buddhist cultivators and the Danqing Sect of the Alchemy cultivators.

There was no time like the present. I rode a cloud to the Dustless Palace and, on a certain peak, I stumbled upon a Buddhist cultivator Master named Wangxin who was deep in meditation. His green robes were like still water, and his features were calm and indifferent.

I was very satisfied. I sent a telepathic message: “Little Buddhist Monk, would you consider practicing dual cultivation with me?”

Hearing this, he suddenly snapped his eyes open. His normally placid gaze fixed on me, and then he coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed into my arms.

Damn. His inner fire was so intense; he really couldn’t handle a little teasing.

He squeezed a few words out from his throat: “Where did this female cultivator come from, daring to disturb my silent meditation?”

I said coquettishly, “I’m from the Hehuan Sect.”

Seeing that he had suffered a cultivation deviation, it wasn’t the right time for anything else. I had to save his life first before we could discuss matters further.

I slipped back to the Hehuan Sect and secretly took some of Master’s immortal pills and elixirs.

Unexpectedly, Master caught me right on the spot, red-handed.
